Stock Opinions by Hap (Robert) Sneddon FCSI - Stockchase Experts

Market. We are above the previous record TSX close. What we see in the last week is a rotation from growth stocks to more value stocks. We are going to see the TSX be a net beneficiary of that rotation. He loaded up on insurance but is lagging in banks. The S&P has a nice up and to right trend since 2017. He thinks we will see some new highs but it will also be carried by some different stocks. Copper is in a triangle formation. We have been in a down trend since 2011. Interest rates are at 2012 and 2016 lows. If we break these levels then maybe there is something negative but otherwise the path of least resistance is eventually higher for interest rates.

AQN-T vs. NPI-T. He likes the sector. It is not a pure utility play. AQN-T has a nice upward trend. They have come off a little bit. They diverged since July. He is looking at whether they will come off a little more. Sept and Oct tend to be the worst performing months.

Silver. He took some profit in precious metals a couple of weeks ago but now he is looking at Silver again. The risk/reward is probably pretty good. Buy a third of a position right now. This is a brand new move after years of heading downwards so there will be some to'ing and fro'ing to come.

It has come off a fair bit in the short term. Something has happened. It does not look like other silver stocks. The $4.70 level is pretty significant. They are raising money and that could be it. We are right at the 200 day.

He does not know that tax loss selling could start now. He thinks people will get out of one energy and then get into another. CPG-T had quite a rally this month. It has run into resistance. It is above the 200 day average.

He is not hopeful. There is a downtrend line that it is running into from below. If we broke $1.13, from current levels then there more to this story than we know. Since Jun/18, its performance against the S&P has been terrible.

This should be going up as with other stocks in this sector. If it is not, then you should own something else. There was a bottom in May that we tested, so that is positive. The relative strength vs. the index is not good.

He got rid of his in one portfolio and has it in another. It has come back to a holding level. It is trying to turn up against the S&P. This would be a place to scale in, but it is very volatile. $431 is a stop level. Make sure it holds.

$64.70 is a low from late August and a bit lower in April. It held in there. Around $69 there is a bunch of resistance. It has had no strength against the S&P since June. We are probably going to come back to the low $60s test.

It is trading at a really good level. The risk/reward is pretty good. Their compounding growth had been lacking compared to earlier periods but right now everything is lined up. (Analysts’ price target is $752.89)

Market. He is not concerned about the markets being off so much. This happens every August. You have trading desks lightly staffed and staffed by younger people who have trigger fingers. We have the dog days of summer right now. He expects that we are in a correction right now. Events always have an out-sized impact in August. The Yuan was a big deal. He always has a problem with them deciding to set their own rate. We have some leg room on the DOW for it to come down before getting nervous. The US 10 year yield has dropped. We are working through things.

It kind of trends down since January, but it isn't terrible. The picture generally is pretty positive. A year from now we will have some inflation and it will break out above $16. It is a good risk/reward to take a shot at some of these names.

It started a dip late last fall. The spike recently is pretty positive even though it is off today. The unsolicited bid should hold the stock. Long term it is pretty good. You have to watch the hurdle we are at right now.

All financials are not the same. Insurance companies have been the place to be recently. It's at support. Stick with the insurance companies but perhaps broaden out which ones you are in to avoid execution risk.

The market knows where the lows in December were. It will likely have a bullish go of it in late August. Let the news digest before buying any. See how the next couple of days go. This is a critical area if you look back in 2017 to when it broke out. (Analysts’ price target is $63.06)

Yield comes out to 13.8% today. Energy is going to be a top pick later. He thinks the risk/reward is pretty good. It has been in a down trend. It is going back to 2005 and 2009 levels. You need to look at it on a monthly basis to get confirmation. Don't touch it if you are a momentum player. It might go a little lower

They were rallying last week after boosting their forecast. We have resistance just under $5. We are almost at the 200 week moving average. Wait until it punches through $5. It has been going up against the S&P since March.

It bottomed in November and flat lined. It has resistance at $8.66 and the fact that we are through it is pretty positive. Watch to see if it holds and if it gets above the moving average. It's at a pretty critical juncture.

(A Top Pick Feb 04/19, Up 16%) He swapped out to CNR-T. He is still in the space. The fact that rails have not 'come off the rails' is an endorsement that as long as we have economic headwinds, things are cooking along. You'll do well in either name a year from now.

(A Top Pick Feb 04/19, Up 22%) Insurance has been pretty reliable, especially in the US. It will kind of hang around here and you could pick it up in the high $70's. Earnings will continue to accelerate. He is buying this.

If it breaks $110 we are going up. He just picked it up. He likes the basing here we just saw. There is a downtrend overhanging it. He thinks the risk/reward is really good. It is a good place to pickup at least half the position.

If you go back 10 years. You see lows from 2012 and 2016. It depends on the top side resistance, but there is a lot of room. The company is well run with good balance sheet. The cash flow has been really good here. We could get quite a surprise here. A year from now you will be happy with these energy names.

ROKU-Q vs. TTD-Q. The movements happen about the same time. You are getting a little bit of euphoria there. Both charts are going up and to the right. TTD-Q is coming off a bit. He would not worry about the difference between the two.

He can't guess what the US Fed will do, but he feels we're still in a rate-rising environment and now we're in a hiccup. Today's U.S. jobs number
makes it hard for the Fed to bow to the market. Always remember that liquidity remains the mother's milk of the market--it is key. Bonds are a bellweather for the wider market and we saw a big move today in the 10-year. Given all this, he expects the Fed will hold the rate and will muddle through. Later, the 10-year will rise, then the Fed will follow suit. Since 2016, the S&P has been trending up. It will likely rise into the fall until rates become restrictive. Finally, will Kawhi Leonard re-sign with the Raptors?
